(SPOILERS FOR PEOPLE WHO HADN'T PLAYED OR WATCHED ANY PLAYTHROUGHS)
I think its one of those VN that really stood out more than the rest. Because not only do the given characters develop, but so does the main character.
I truly feel like the game made me feel invested in the story despite its lack of CG (well... its in early access, what did I expect).
But I fear about one thing that might ruin this game, keep in mind, it may be just my opinion, I will still like this game regardless, so don't take this with a grain of salt, but I feel like having a poly route between Jacob and Gabriel might ruin the game. Because:
Jacob's route is perfect, despite having a problematic scene (*cough*-the locker room scene-*cough*). I feel like having a poly route with Jacob will actually ruin some highlights on what makes his character shine. Jacob's route is wild, and it not only focuses on his jealousy towards Jorge, but also the development of Jorge himself, and the moment where Jorge confesses that he didn't feel like he apologized to Jacob enough was one of the most emotional moments in the game.
Gabriel's route is my least favorite, but I don't hate it. It still holds a deep dive of holding a high job position. But I feel, again, having a poly route with him may ruin some highlights of his character more. In the end, he confesses that he felt envious of his exes, (Yeah, you could really tell by how good he was hiding it.) and realized he really needs a relationship, and it's with Jorge, which I think is the only emotional moment I could get out of his route.
In fact, I think if done incorrectly, it will actually be a terrible influence on Jorge. By then, the game will just be taken out by lust. Well, it is an 18+ game, but I feel like being for mature audience doesn't excuse terrible writing or plots.
I just don't think there was any chemistry going on with Jacob and Gabriel for me to agree if a poly route is suitable or not.
Also, despite Ivaan hating alcohol. He is seen holding a glass of champagne in his good ending. Maybe he's drinking chrysanthemum tea, ginger ale, I don't know?
This is not what I think the game will be, but more so on what I'm afraid if the game took into a more fanservice route. So whatever happens to the game, I'm not going to hate it, it still has it's strong points.
Other than that, I have high hopes for Kevin's route based on the lunch time and hang outs, and some interactions from Jacob's route. So keep it going~
Than you for your insight! To be honest, the poly route is just a little extra, that will add fan service, as you well said, but will add very little to the general storyline. It was a Kickstarter extra, and I think some people will enjoy a handful of extra sex scenes. So you can skip that option completely when it's released if that's not up your alley.
And what do you need the game doesn't have CGs?? There are many of them! You even have a CG gallery where you can see the ones you've unlocked.
Could it be that you mean animations? If that's the case, I'm sorry, but no, the final game won't have animations.
I'm sorry. That was the plan—finishing the game before the end of the summer—but I've been very busy lately and have little energy or motivation left. I'll do my best to finish it as soon as possible.
The game is still in early access, with some dialogues/minor scenes missing, but three of the routes are already there, so you should be able to play Gabriel, Jacob and Ivaan's routes already.
Are you getting a dead end where you don't have enough points with any love interest, perhaps?
Already left a Steam review, so just came here to say I really enjoyed all the (current) routes and in particular Gabriel is pure perfection. Really looking forward for when the polyamory route is added, it's something not often considered in the first place after all.
Also, are there plans to add an After Stories DLC for this title (paid or otherwise?)
Todavía no, lo siento: hasta que todo el texto de las cuatro rutas esté acabado, no puedo añadir la traducción al español. Pero estará antes de fin de año.
Oki gracias, pense que era idiota y que no lo encontraba, de igual forma espero con ansias, fue un gusto conocerte en un festival y desde entonces trato de comprarme juegos tuyos, me gustan mucho en serio
Will the Gabriel route come with new steam achievements? 🙏 I've reviewed it on steam too and rec'd through my curator page, hoping it helps the algorithm.
it just doesn't react to any clicks. I've tried clicking almost everywhere with both instruments , but nothing happens, no dialogue or confirmation or anything. the rest of the game works just fine for me, its just the minigame.
Click on both his nipples with each object. A small dialogue will appear in each option. Once you have passed these four pieces of dialogue, the regular arrow click will appear again and the game will proceed to the sex scene.
I've passed through this scene at least a hundred times while betatesting, so unless you've touched something in the code, it must work.
i figured it out yesterday, i didn't have the moue in the right place, so bosses route is now complete ^o^. i also must assure you, i am not smart enough to change code, let alone write it. thank you very much for your help.
How do I unlock the Smoking Relapse achievement? I think I've seen everything the game has right now with 10hours playtime.
I tried doing a ivaan + stress route, since that path unlock the couch smoking CG - but no achieve. I've also noticed there's 3 locked CG's still (page 3 bottom row left + page 5 middle row right and bottom row right)
I'll take a look at that achievement, because if you got that CG you should also get the achi... About the CGs, check out the guide I uploaded on the Steam Community of the game!
Looking at my gallery the smoking CG is not there even though I def saw it during my Ivaan playthrough, might possibly be bugged since the global achievement stat is at a whopping 0.7% - the next achievement being 19% of players upwards.
Edit: I ended up getting the achieve? I saw the CG again through a diff method. I just started a new save, picked all the anti options, took jacobs advice then visited kevin. Triggered jacobs bar scene, omw home it triggered a visit convenience store dialogue for cigerettes.
It still didn't unlock the CG in my gallery as it still shows 3. locked but it granted me the achieve.
I found the issue with the CG gallery, thank you for telling me! It's still set to the censored version, so it only gets the NSFW images that share the same name. I'll fix it in the next update.
Thank you sm for offering me a copy of your game, I'm a newly made curator, and I only just saw the offer today. I've JUST started playing - and I have to say I'm enjoying myself, I've had it on my wishlist for ageeeees. I thought it was gonna be a SFW softcore style VN so the adult patch was a nice but welcome surprise!
XDD If you could leave this review on Steam instead of here... That was the main intention ;) You surely know how Steam algorithm works: they measure your success in how many Steam reviews you have. All the rest doesn't count.
I want to report a bug, spoilers! I finished jacob's route but i didnt get his bottoming scene!
> how can i get it?
also after i get THE END, the game jumps back to the middle of story, sometimes the locker, sometimes before the vacation, and it changes from nsfw version to sfw.
P.S: got the game on steam, i loved the jacob's route alot, especially the locker's scene, but overall their push and pull relationship was so hot and intense, so thank you very much <3
I bought the game on Steam (so glad you put the NSFW version available there), and I just have to say it's so much fun! I started playing yesterday and could barely bring myself to close it and go to bed. All of the LIs seem cool in their own way, and I can definitely see myself replaying to do all of their routes (tho Gabriel is my favorite for now).
I see the file for the steam but unable to download it just asks to purchase game. So how do I get the ability to download the file without having to pay again as I have already purchased on steam?
I am still in the early stages of the game so I don't know if this will be a feature later on.
Since the mobile phone is in active part of this game, it would be great if we can leave memos on each person's likes and dislikes or habits (Ivaan being vegetarian and Gabriel owing a BDSM dungeon and such), it would also be great if we are able to see the affection points we gained so that we know which character we are pursuing
Also, I cannot find the option to hide text for the current moment
Overall, the game is great and I am enjoying it this far but I would like more options for foreplay or during sex though like getting to tie Gabriel/Jacob up
There seems to be an error; in Jacob route after getting home when we get to text the four guys, the ending text was an apologize for how Jorge acted during lunch but he never meet them at lunch? This happens for quite a few times...is it because the full version isn't out yet?
Anyway gonna continue it now and let you know again, I am at the stage where it's the third day of my job 😂
Thank you so much for your feedback! Let's see: the gauge telling you how many points you have with each character is a planned feature. The other feature for the phone (using it as a notepad) have never crossed my mind; I'll give it a thought.
To hide the textbox you just need to press "h" (hide), and it will disappear. There's a "help" option in the game menu with many interesting features for games made in renpy, I recommend you to check it out!
The missing texts and lunch breaks will be there in a next update, sorry. But if they are missing is because they aren't essential for the love interest's route.
There's currently one foreplay scene with Gabriel and another with Ivaan, but there will be one with each character for sure.
If you have more suggestions, please keep them coming! ;)
Oh, he's not like that when Jorge and he have talked about their problems and they are finally together. There's too much history between them for Jacob's taste.
I was enjoying this game - storyline is good, art is amazing & the dialogue is good.
I was attempting to pursue Ivaan but was driven to pursue Jacob.
Overall, I was okay with this because I was looking forward to seeing my first route & how it played out naturally. Jacob's character proceeds to be rude, cruel & abusive towards the main character. The dialogue is consistently unpleasant between the main character & Jacob.
SPOILER:
The part where I decided I can not continue to play this game is when they have an argument in the locker room & Jacob rapes the main character. Despite the dialogue insinuating the character is a man whore who does enjoy the experience. This is done in poor taste & there should be a warning prior to this scene or at the very least an option to decline the experience.
I was enjoying this game up until this point but this situation severely ruined my experience. Please take into account that some people may be triggered by this type of situation, as I was.
I'm really sorry that scene was triggering for you. I tried my best to highlight that Jorge could have pushed Jacob off and left any moment he wished -and he was 100% aware of it- but chose to stay. Despite disliking how the sex scene starts, he agrees to relinquish power and doesn't feel it as an assault, but just like rough sex.
However, if some people are going to feel triggered or disgusted, I'll add the option of actually pushing Jacob off and leaving: hate sex is a very particular kink anyway, and some people won't be able to enjoy the scene no matter the nuances. Same as open relationships aren't for everyone, as Jacob had the bad luck to realize belatedly.
Small question : since we have only the paypal option on itch.io can we buy the mac version on steam ? I'm asking since on steam we can only see the symbol of windows/pc (sorry for the bother ><).
I'm really sorry, but Mac asks for a paid dev fee to publish games for them. As I'm a solo dev making small games, it's not economically worth it for me.
On itchio nobody from Apple will check if that fee is paid or not. The other way around this is making an "all-operating systems" build for Steam. I can't put a tick on "Mac build" on Steam, but it might work on Mac computers, as it works for Linux users.
Anyway, I strongly recommend purchasing the game here, where you know you'll be able to play it, and claim a Steam key from the game page to try it on Steam.
Arf I understand you have to do what is best for you. Unfortunately on itch.io you can only pay with Paypal and in my country it's complicated (more taxes etc) so... too bad... Anyway the demo was great and I'll recommend the game if someone asks me (but i'll probably unfollow because damn your games are all great but I can't buy them it's pure torture xD).
you know I have to say you did a great job I cant wait till I can play the full game and that's an interesting feat to accomplish usually when I play a visual novel I only play routes that are interesting but this is the first time I wanna play all of them so thanks
Oops, really? I thought it was quite clear, but I can make a guide, of course.
You need at least 10 affection points with a character to be able to choose his route, and if you have 10 or more with more than one character, the game lets you choose.
So, I'm not sure if this is a bug or just how it's supposed to be, but ever since my the weekend between the first conference (trying to avoid spoilers) I planned and the second conference I was invited to (I'm on jacob's route...i hope) Evyertime I am home and it asks me if I want to text someone, all the texts are the same. No matter which person I text I say hi, they say hi, and I apologize for a horrible lunch, and then it ends? even if I hadn't lunched with or talked to that person at all that day. And there's never an affection change tracked. Its been six or seven text opportunities now where I'm still talking about that lunch I was apparently an asshole at, with whomever I text. I worry I'm missing affection points or event opportunity prompts?
That aside god I love jacob when I don't hate him :-D
Some of the texts, especially in Jacob's route, are still missing, yes (since some depend on the point you are with a certain character, and for that I need to have all the routes written T_T). Same happens when you have lunch with a character you aren't pursuing in that route.
No worries. I thought that might be it, and it's not like it hindered me in my pursuit of Jacob so to heck with the rest of them till I'm on their routes ^_~.
I was just worried it was a bug and if it was wanted you alerted early so it didn't mess up your early access release! :-D
Now that I know its just unfinished story cover I can go on without worry that I've missed super secret Jacob content! :-D Again this game is great so far soon as I finish Jacob I'm diving into Ivaan (or the other way around i suppose >_>)! Thank you again for this game I've been looking so forward to its release!
Yeah happened to me too, I even try to click all member (Kevin, Jacob, Gabriel, etc.) but it always ended up wuth "im sorry for being an asshole at lunch). It's fine though as it's an early access :D
You must access the Google Drive link of your choice (Mac or Windows/Linux) and download the game from there.
We have asked itchio for additional space, since the current build is bigger than 1 Gb, but until they fix that, downloading from Google Drive is the best option.
hi there! i have a quick question. if we buy the sfw version of EA will we have access to the NSFW version or vice versa? or do you have to buy the the other version as well?
Hmmm... They are on different pages, so the access link is different. But you can always buy the NSFW version here and then claim a Steam key from your itchio page, once the Steam game is approved. The Steam version will always be the SFW one.
I was wondering if there's any official information available regarding the updated release date of the game. Thank you for any updates or insights you can provide!
I agree i get these games are really difficult to make and i apriciate the amount of effort going into the game but its been like 2 months before any news.
Please, follow my Twitter or my Discord server; I sadly don't have the time to update every social media, but I try to share a weekly screenshot of the scenes I'm working on that week.
The Kickstarter page got an update one month ago, on January 7th.

Do you have any dev updates about Kevins route? and the potential polyam route.
The early access description says before the end of Summer - and we're about to enter Winter ^^
I'm sorry. That was the plan—finishing the game before the end of the summer—but I've been very busy lately and have little energy or motivation left. I'll do my best to finish it as soon as possible.
That's okay, burnouts tend to happen. Just thought I'd ask since you haven't posted.
Hi, I am wondering. Is the full game out? My game stops when Jorge is wondering which one of the four guys he should date at his desk
The game is still in early access, with some dialogues/minor scenes missing, but three of the routes are already there, so you should be able to play Gabriel, Jacob and Ivaan's routes already.
Are you getting a dead end where you don't have enough points with any love interest, perhaps?
I am not sure. I do not keep count
But it should say so in the message you get, telling you you haven't got close enough to any guy.
So whose routes are already completed?
Jacob, Ivaan and Gabriel.
Copy and pasted from the SFW version page:
Already left a Steam review, so just came here to say I really enjoyed all the (current) routes and in particular Gabriel is pure perfection. Really looking forward for when the polyamory route is added, it's something not often considered in the first place after all.
Also, are there plans to add an After Stories DLC for this title (paid or otherwise?)
Ah, I replied on the SFW page!
Yes, there's a DLC planned.
No esta en español, no? es que me descargué la demo y lo compré hoy pero no me sale para a pponerlo en español :(
Todavía no, lo siento: hasta que todo el texto de las cuatro rutas esté acabado, no puedo añadir la traducción al español. Pero estará antes de fin de año.
Oki gracias, pense que era idiota y que no lo encontraba, de igual forma espero con ansias, fue un gusto conocerte en un festival y desde entonces trato de comprarme juegos tuyos, me gustan mucho en serio
<3 Muchísimas gracias!
When i text the same message pops up for all of the guys every night is this supposed to happen
Yes, there are a few missing scenes at the moment. Remember the game is still on early access.
Can not open the game after the update. Here is the traceback.

Are you downloading the game through the itchio app? Sometimes it prompts errors.
Yes, through the itch app, maybe I can try download it from web.
Please do: I don't know why, but games downloaded through the app tend to crash.
How do you get the "Crucified" achievement
It's on Gabriel's route
I have encountered some situations:
1. I have bought the wrong version (SFW) but I have activated the Steam Key.
2. The game on Steam does not support MAC.
So what should I do... Is there any solution to replace the SFW version with the NSFW version?
Ooops! I can email you with a key for the NSFW itchio version. Your email is the only personal data itchio shares with the game owners.
WELLLLL REceived！！！ much appreciation！！！
Can I add a credit card as a payment method?
You can either pay with your card through paypal, or buy the game on Steam.
I am having an issue on Android during the Jacob route.
While running game code:
File "game/jacobroute.rpy", line 3628, in <module>
NameError: name 'jacobhatesex' is not defined
Thank you for reporting it, I'll try to push an update today.
I'm loving the Ivaan route so far!
Also, I see what you did there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Will there be bottom scenes for Ivaan in future updates? Wish for more variety of h-scenes from these two childhood sweethearts!!!
I don't think it's possible for Ivaan to bottom? After all, Jorge feeds him a red bean enchilada during their weekend excursion, soooo... 😏
How to unlock polyamory route
Please, wait until it's added to the game!
Once it's implemented, you will need to have ten affection points with both Gabriel and Jacob by the time you must choose a route ;)
i saw in the features it says the poly route. is the 10 points each requirement still how to get it?
Yes, a minimum of ten points with Gabriel and ten points with Jacob.
I think for the phone conversations, color needs to be adjusted. Hard to see for people who are colour blind. Can't read half of the time
I noticed it was less legible on Android, so I'll change the colors to increase the contrast, yes.
EDIT: Done!
Great. thank you. Now I can finally read the conversations :)
Is the Android version updated?
Nope, I haven't had the time yet!
Will the Gabriel route come with new steam achievements? 🙏
I've reviewed it on steam too and rec'd through my curator page, hoping it helps the algorithm.
Thank you so much! And yes, new achis have been added!
i cant get past gabriels "minigame", im not sure if its just my computer or a problem on the games side.
Works fine on my end, so can you tell me exactly what's wrong when you reach that scene?
it just doesn't react to any clicks. I've tried clicking almost everywhere with both instruments , but nothing happens, no dialogue or confirmation or anything. the rest of the game works just fine for me, its just the minigame.
*SPOILER WARNING*
Click on both his nipples with each object. A small dialogue will appear in each option. Once you have passed these four pieces of dialogue, the regular arrow click will appear again and the game will proceed to the sex scene.

ofc, when I'm done playing I will 🤭just felt like I'd get your attention here if I thanked you for it.
I want to report a bug, spoilers! I finished jacob's route but i didnt get his bottoming scene!
> how can i get it?
also after i get THE END, the game jumps back to the middle of story, sometimes the locker, sometimes before the vacation, and it changes from nsfw version to sfw.
P.S: got the game on steam, i loved the jacob's route alot, especially the locker's scene, but overall their push and pull relationship was so hot and intense, so thank you very much <3
That bug in the end (Steam version only, not here on itchio) was fixed in the last update, so please update your game!
For Jacob's bottom scene, you can choose if you want to top or bottom in the first scene with him ;)
I think I'll make a quick routes guide today, because many people miss the first Jacob scene XDD
Omg thank you, it worked!
Don't tell me i missed 1st scene cz i slept with gabriel XD
Oh btw is the polymorous route coming out this year?
Yes, it will be added once the four routes are complete.
By the way, have you seen the guide on Steam? You might have missed more scenes with Jacob...
Please, if you need to ask something about potential spoilers, do it by PM (twitter or Discord), not here! XDDD Sorry!
Oh hahaha, i guess i better not spoil myself either, it's time to replay the route again :D
Thank you for being so patient and gentle and i am looking forward to upcoming updates <3
I bought the game on Steam (so glad you put the NSFW version available there), and I just have to say it's so much fun! I started playing yesterday and could barely bring myself to close it and go to bed. All of the LIs seem cool in their own way, and I can definitely see myself replaying to do all of their routes (tho Gabriel is my favorite for now).
;) You could leave this review there, you know? The sooner we get ten reviews on Steam, the better! It really help us
I see the file for the steam but unable to download it just asks to purchase game. So how do I get the ability to download the file without having to pay again as I have already purchased on steam?
You don't need the patch anymore, just go to your game on Steam and update it: the Steam version has now the patch added to the main game.
Hi,
I am still in the early stages of the game so I don't know if this will be a feature later on.
Since the mobile phone is in active part of this game, it would be great if we can leave memos on each person's likes and dislikes or habits (Ivaan being vegetarian and Gabriel owing a BDSM dungeon and such), it would also be great if we are able to see the affection points we gained so that we know which character we are pursuing
Also, I cannot find the option to hide text for the current moment
Overall, the game is great and I am enjoying it this far but I would like more options for foreplay or during sex though like getting to tie Gabriel/Jacob up
There seems to be an error; in Jacob route after getting home when we get to text the four guys, the ending text was an apologize for how Jorge acted during lunch but he never meet them at lunch? This happens for quite a few times...is it because the full version isn't out yet?
Anyway gonna continue it now and let you know again, I am at the stage where it's the third day of my job 😂
Hi!
Thank you so much for your feedback! Let's see: the gauge telling you how many points you have with each character is a planned feature. The other feature for the phone (using it as a notepad) have never crossed my mind; I'll give it a thought.

There's currently one foreplay scene with Gabriel and another with Ivaan, but there will be one with each character for sure.
If you have more suggestions, please keep them coming! ;)
I wish there could be more done during foreplay or during each sex scene
I am using the android version so I don't see the 'help' option either
IS this game SFW? cause i download on steam and its SFW. Should i download on Itchio instead to get the NSFW version?
The Steam version has been updated to the NSFW version.
Oh, he's not like that when Jorge and he have talked about their problems and they are finally together. There's too much history between them for Jacob's taste.
Yes I've done that part .But before that happen, I need to suffer hours of abuse Lol.
And that is not a comfortable feeling for players also.
btw,More Sex scene please!
hhh.Thanks for replying.

I was enjoying this game - storyline is good, art is amazing & the dialogue is good.
I was attempting to pursue Ivaan but was driven to pursue Jacob.
Overall, I was okay with this because I was looking forward to seeing my first route & how it played out naturally. Jacob's character proceeds to be rude, cruel & abusive towards the main character. The dialogue is consistently unpleasant between the main character & Jacob.
SPOILER:
The part where I decided I can not continue to play this game is when they have an argument in the locker room & Jacob rapes the main character. Despite the dialogue insinuating the character is a man whore who does enjoy the experience. This is done in poor taste & there should be a warning prior to this scene or at the very least an option to decline the experience.
I was enjoying this game up until this point but this situation severely ruined my experience. Please take into account that some people may be triggered by this type of situation, as I was.
I'm really sorry that scene was triggering for you. I tried my best to highlight that Jorge could have pushed Jacob off and left any moment he wished -and he was 100% aware of it- but chose to stay. Despite disliking how the sex scene starts, he agrees to relinquish power and doesn't feel it as an assault, but just like rough sex.
However, if some people are going to feel triggered or disgusted, I'll add the option of actually pushing Jacob off and leaving: hate sex is a very particular kink anyway, and some people won't be able to enjoy the scene no matter the nuances. Same as open relationships aren't for everyone, as Jacob had the bad luck to realize belatedly.
I appreciate your reply.
Thank you for answering so promptly & respectfully.
I can understand your point of view & thank you for your thoughtful & caring response.
I look forward to further development of this game.
Small question : since we have only the paypal option on itch.io can we buy the mac version on steam ? I'm asking since on steam we can only see the symbol of windows/pc (sorry for the bother ><).
I'm really sorry, but Mac asks for a paid dev fee to publish games for them. As I'm a solo dev making small games, it's not economically worth it for me.
On itchio nobody from Apple will check if that fee is paid or not. The other way around this is making an "all-operating systems" build for Steam. I can't put a tick on "Mac build" on Steam, but it might work on Mac computers, as it works for Linux users.
Anyway, I strongly recommend purchasing the game here, where you know you'll be able to play it, and claim a Steam key from the game page to try it on Steam.
Arf I understand you have to do what is best for you. Unfortunately on itch.io you can only pay with Paypal and in my country it's complicated (more taxes etc) so... too bad... Anyway the demo was great and I'll recommend the game if someone asks me (but i'll probably unfollow because damn your games are all great but I can't buy them it's pure torture xD).
XDD don't blame me! Mac is great for many things, but not for playing videogames!
No one can argue with that ! xD
I love Ivaans route very much. He is my favourite of all the LI from the start(and more after his sprite changed) and I wasn't disappointed.
Jacobs route is interesting and it let me be excited for Gabriels & their poly route.
Good work^^
Although the music gallery doesn't seem to work. I clicked every one of the themes and with all of them silence.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you like Ivaan! He's a really sweet guy... with sadly relatable issues.
And thank you for telling me about the music gallery: it works on my end, but perhaps I touched something I shouldn't in the last update.
Show post...
The art is amazingly good
you know I have to say you did a great job I cant wait till I can play the full game and that's an interesting feat to accomplish usually when I play a visual novel I only play routes that are interesting but this is the first time I wanna play all of them so thanks
PS sorry if I sound rude I'm not trying to be
Not rude at all, just the opposite! Thank you for your kind words.
Is there a guide to understand wich route I'n in? 2nd time i play, 2nd time i couldn't choose a route XD?
Oops, really? I thought it was quite clear, but I can make a guide, of course.
You need at least 10 affection points with a character to be able to choose his route, and if you have 10 or more with more than one character, the game lets you choose.
So, I'm not sure if this is a bug or just how it's supposed to be, but ever since my the weekend between the first conference (trying to avoid spoilers) I planned and the second conference I was invited to (I'm on jacob's route...i hope) Evyertime I am home and it asks me if I want to text someone, all the texts are the same. No matter which person I text I say hi, they say hi, and I apologize for a horrible lunch, and then it ends? even if I hadn't lunched with or talked to that person at all that day. And there's never an affection change tracked. Its been six or seven text opportunities now where I'm still talking about that lunch I was apparently an asshole at, with whomever I text. I worry I'm missing affection points or event opportunity prompts?
That aside god I love jacob when I don't hate him :-D
Some of the texts, especially in Jacob's route, are still missing, yes (since some depend on the point you are with a certain character, and for that I need to have all the routes written T_T). Same happens when you have lunch with a character you aren't pursuing in that route.
They will be added soon, though!
No worries. I thought that might be it, and it's not like it hindered me in my pursuit of Jacob so to heck with the rest of them till I'm on their routes ^_~.
I was just worried it was a bug and if it was wanted you alerted early so it didn't mess up your early access release! :-D
Now that I know its just unfinished story cover I can go on without worry that I've missed super secret Jacob content! :-D Again this game is great so far soon as I finish Jacob I'm diving into Ivaan (or the other way around i suppose >_>)! Thank you again for this game I've been looking so forward to its release!
Thank you, I'm glad you are enjoying it!
Yeah happened to me too, I even try to click all member (Kevin, Jacob, Gabriel, etc.) but it always ended up wuth "im sorry for being an asshole at lunch). It's fine though as it's an early access :D
Great game!! The art is amazingly good!
Thank you, my dear!
游戏下载不了
You must access the Google Drive link of your choice (Mac or Windows/Linux) and download the game from there.
We have asked itchio for additional space, since the current build is bigger than 1 Gb, but until they fix that, downloading from Google Drive is the best option.
hi there! i have a quick question. if we buy the sfw version of EA will we have access to the NSFW version or vice versa? or do you have to buy the the other version as well?
cheers.
Hmmm... They are on different pages, so the access link is different. But you can always buy the NSFW version here and then claim a Steam key from your itchio page, once the Steam game is approved. The Steam version will always be the SFW one.
I was wondering if there's any official information available regarding the updated release date of the game. Thank you for any updates or insights you can provide!
I agree i get these games are really difficult to make and i apriciate the amount of effort going into the game but its been like 2 months before any news.
Please, follow my Twitter or my Discord server; I sadly don't have the time to update every social media, but I try to share a weekly screenshot of the scenes I'm working on that week.
The Kickstarter page got an update one month ago, on January 7th.
When will be the release date of the full game?
